Clawing my way from the vortex
Which longs for my soul
Climbing ever further
Towards nothingness
Hope, what a lie
Soulless anger at existence
My fellow departed are missing the spark
Their eyes are bereft of life
Their souls are dry and worm-eaten
Unkindled flame which plunges into darkness
Hope, what a lie
Shall I just lay down and wither
Forge the sword of hate to cut down their lies
Festering in the womb of humanity's soul
Behold the worthless existence through shaded eyes
I fight for a meaningless death at the claws of nihil
Behold the lies of the gods
Who promised paradise and salvation
Their promises were counterfeit
(Cut off the lies)
What did we get instead?
(Festering lies)
Desolation
(Cut off the lies)
(Festering lies)
In the end it doesn't matter
Virtue was futile
Pointless strife in the face of the abyss
Don't even bother with a grave
Leave my corpse to rot amongst my peers
Who saw the same truth
Before their hollowed eyes
(Their hollowed eyes)
